Last Monday, Memorial holiday in US [yes, we had our holiday too even we're in Japan, we are still Americans anyway who happened to live in Japan hehehe], we got a lot of oysters from a river that I forgot the name :-) .....[again hehehe]. I need to ask my friend what's the name of this river and we need to come back here to get more oysters.

Domo Arigato! Thank you very much!
Missy, that last picture is just GORGOUS, it looks like something that should be framed and hung in my room! I love it. All your pictures were once again just awesome, I love how you are able to capture everything just right. Not sure what kind of camera you have, but your colors show up so bright and clear. I need to work on my pictures a bit, they seem to dull in color. Anyway, the drive by picture was really fabulous too. And i guess there is nothing more interesting then seeing those rice fields!! Now that really makes me feel as if I have just taken a plane on over to Japan and saw it for myself. Fantastic post and great job on the shoot out. Always a pleasure to stop by your blog and see what you have to share with us. ciao, Debby
ReplyDeleteHello Missy, I really enjoyed your post about water today. What a treat to get to see all your beautiful scenery. Like Debby said, your photographs are so clear and colorful. Thanks so much for sharing such beauty with us.
ReplyDeleteMissy your photos are excellent! I like very much the first one with the night (or evening) sky reflected in the water. The PInk Birdhouse is right your colors are really good. maybe no polution or humidity to obscure the colore.
ReplyDeleteanyway great job.
Your color is deep and haunting...I love what you do to the sky...and what a great playground on the beach!! I laughed out loud at the oysters in the box where your caption had to mention the water so we'd note it. Great take on the theme.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful shots Missy. I love the fisherman.....the oyster looks so realy that you feel like you could reach out and touch it. I especially love the one of your son wading for clams.....Ohhh, I just can't pick a favorite!!!
ReplyDeleteHope your weekend is filled with love, joy and laughter and......
Steady On

Absolutely stunning shots. All of them.
ReplyDeleteWow. Kudos on this post in particular.
Wow.
Magnificent shots. I love the oyster shots and the clam hunters and oyster hunters. We do that around here, too.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the water shot with the one ripple shot. Did you throw a stone in the water or did it come from a critter? Perfect shot.
Love them all.
Thanks for another tour around your lovely area.
Oh, I love rice, especially sticky rice.
Dearest Missy,
ReplyDeleteOh finally, I see you again and enjoy Japan as ever.. Your son is getting bigger now compared to the first photos. Photos Japan waters are really interesting especially those in the rice fields. I'll browse back and see what I had missed from your recent photo shoot outs.. Have a lovely ady ahead.. care, ate loida
Rice fields in the evening and the reflection in them are just awesome. And how can a drive by shot be so beautiful?? Water was a great theme for you too. My GRAND~girls would go nuts for that beach playground. It looks like to much fun.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see Japan next week.
Sunshine and smiles!
I so enjoyed browsing your photos. they are full of blue hues... which I love!
ReplyDeleteHi Missy, you have wonderful photos here on your blog! I'm sorry for my very late visit. I have been suffering from sinusitis, but I'm feeling better now. Hope you have a wonderful week :)
ReplyDeletethe first two shots took my breath away. beautiful post and awesome job!!
ReplyDeleteNo mussels in the area? Btw, your photography is exceptionally good.
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos! I always enjoy tours like yours. I could almost taste the oysters.
ReplyDeleteThe single drop interrupting the rice field reflection is a wonderful shot! I also really enjoyed the boats!
ReplyDeleteTO ALL- Thanks for all your comments, you all inspired me to take nice photos :-) I hope you come back and visit me once again
ReplyDeleteYes.. love the pics.
ReplyDeleteSo did it cost you to get those oysters??Where was this at??
Hi luv2cre8art- sorry this is too late to respond but actually I have no idea where this was, we can't even remember to go back here :-)
